It's Tough Being Me - The Kevin Pietersen Story

IMO the only way he'll get back in is by saying "you need me. I need you. So how about we let bygones be bygones and work from a clean slate". Might be impossible but a damn sight better than trying to stoke his own fires, which'll just inflaming the ECB's.

ffs let it go kp.
I actually thought he already had when he released that video stating his availability for all forms of the game. It really did seem to me that Pietersen wanted to put all this crap behind him and move forward (basically like you said in Post #621). I didn't realise there were still actually issues from his end, so this has surprised me a bit.

To be fair, this all has a fairly murky feel to it. The report is pretty quiet on where/when this was said, and to who.

I mean to me it seems they (KP and Flower or w/ever) were just discussing all the issues and KP was like "well hey I wanna know 4 sur swann and broad weren't involved in that" which seems like a reasonable request and probably something Flower wants to be sure of too and i dunno know someone decided to leak it because

Wasn't one of Pietersen's myriad gripes that stuff from private discussions was being leaked to the press?

Keen sense of irony, the boy.

Dobell does great work on english county cricket, not so sure on the rest of it

Penny will soon drop with public & media that the REALLY out-of-control egos in that England dressing room are Broad, Anderson and Swann.

No surprise that the ego of Chris "Robot" Tremlett is not being questioned

What a mess :(

I can't see a way back for KP at the moment. Certainly not into the T20 team given Broad is captain.

And Swann's ego being too big I can imagine, Broad at a push... but Jimmy A with an ego problem seems bizarre.

Maybe not. His ego might manifest itself as having to be constantly mollycoddled. cf his comments about Vaughan.

I reckon he's changed a lot since them. Certainly then media interviews with him were basically him looking at the floor mumbling, he didn't seem to have any self-confidence at all. He seems pretty different to that these days
